Developing a 'Perhaps' kind of faith is the key for sharing the good news of Jesus with others.

As we continue through the beginnings of Luke's Gospel we see Mary, fresh from her extraordinary encounter with the angel Gabriel, growing in her faith and confidence in God, through time with her cousin Elizabeth. Discover how faith is nurtured by reflecting on God's word to us, and through fellowship with His people.

God sometimes acts dramatically to fulfil our personal dreams while accomplishing his redemptive purposes.

When God wants to do something on earth, He always looks for a person to fulfil His plans through. Augustine once put it like this: 'without God we cannot, without us God will not.' But giving God our 'yes' always comes at a cost, be it our dignity, reputation, our relationships, comfort, security, or even safety. In the story of Mary, discover someone who said 'yes' to the purposes of God and risked all of the above! How on earth did Mary step out in faith when the implications of God's call on her life should have been a source of anxiety? Simply put, because of the favour of God. Find out what favour is, why God favours us, and how He fulfils His purposes in our lives!

The gospel of Luke is a solid platform on which we encounter the person of Jesus, the work of Jesus, and the mission of Jesus.

Great faith for walking with God in the mundane details of life.
